    You too, huh? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I must say, it doesn't feel like we've had much of a winter so far - just a few cold days.

    It certainly feels like we've skipped winter - I hope that it arrives before everything gets too over excited about spring.

    We had it all; torrential downpour, grey drizzle, sun, sun and wind, back to downpour! I agree on the no winter yet. She's been tame so far, though February i think is generally our worst month.
